Guys this is admittedly off topic but it's something I've been wondering about for a while.
Summer league last year some were saying Russell was clearly the best player in the competition. And he did have some very good games. I think it was their 3rd game where they had a big lead, but the offense dried up big and we lost. Can anyone remind me who the guy was on the opposition that lit the place up? He must have been 6'7 or thereabouts and we rotated several guys on him but nobody could stop him. Including Russell. I've always wondered what happened to him. Whether he got picked up in the draft.
Cheers


Jordan McRae, 26 year old third year player. He was waived by the Cavs in March after appearing in 37 games for them.


It was not a 76ers scrub guard that gave us a lot of trouble?


Amazing that your obsession hasn't ended yet.


I'd call it your obsession because I'm just trying to remember a player that gave us a lot of trouble on pick and roll situations where it is more about team defense/communication than man defense.



Says the poster who basically didn't post until the 2015 draft...and when Oak wasn't selected, has posted about 90% about a guy he doesn't have an "obsession" with.

Nash, DLO's gone. Let it be.

I grew to really like him last season, after lamenting the pick in the first entire year as I thought Porz was way better.

How do we trade such a talented guy, and a FA we just signed at 12.05 am the previous year, for a 29 yo Center?

I really really despise the Buss family and their personal vendetta which creeped into our franchise.

We wasted a 2nd pick for no reason but that. We could have had Porzingis, Booker and simply kept Russell. Instead, we are left with nothing.

Later, Dlo. I'm confident you'll be successful in Brooklyn.

I'am still pretty sick about this. You don't see a lot of 20, 21 years old with that skillset. He wasn't perfect but he could've became really good if given the time.

I'm sure dlo gonna put up #s in bk but 2 coaching staffs and magic saw red flags that made him expendable even tho he has a lot of talent. I blame nick young for the young guys not being serious about the game. Don't blame them young rich athletes on THE LA team. Not everyone is built for this hopefully clarkson is out next.

That would be a good time as any to lock this thread up (or move it to general NBA).

D'Angelo was probably my favorite player over the last two seasons. He certainly wasn't perfect, but what young rookie/soph's are? I'll certainly tune into the occasional Nets game to check up on his progress, and I wish him the best.

I hope the trade works out being the right move for the Lakers, and I don't wish D'Angelo any ill will to make it look better in comparison.

Probably not happy to see Lopez go, but they'll warm up to DLO. Otherwise, probably Knicks fans

Naw, it's mostly Knicks fans and transplant Laker fans (believe me there are many, as I noticed when I lived there). The amount of actual Nets fans out there wouldn't fill Barclay Center. This ain't Philly.
